Not that I know of. If a N-linked glycosylated protein is found in the
cytosol it's in the process of being degraded by the ERAD pathway.
Glycosylated proteins can be found in the cytosol, but they are O-linked
glycans and attachment of the sugar happens in the cytosol (see for
example E-cadherin).
